Norman Soloman is out there and should probably be more ...

...widely known and read than he is.
Check him out at his blog: http://www.normansolomon.com/

He has written War Made Easy; How Presidents and Pundits Keep Spinning Us To Death- http://www.warmadeeasy.com/ and I think even more recently Made Love Got War; Close Encounters With Americas Warfare State.

Of course guys like him have been around forever conducting highly admirable careers and doing great work and some Im sure really fighting the good fight and yet we have the mainstream business and politics as usual that we have today. "Speaking truth to power" is of course a necessary part of what is needed but we have to use and better develop the projected potential of DemocracyWeb 4.0 (beta) to get better coordinated, organized, and mobilized. What say, eh?

I'm getting closer to operating on...

...at least a couple two tree cylinders, which is a start. And which also means I will soon be getting a little less smarmy and journalish at least in my post titles on this here blog. The titles should be a concise nutshell of what the post's contents is going to be about. And pretty soon after that I am going to have to take it all to the next level and start up brazen communications with other seemingly progressive democracy types I find "out there" in the ether of the Internet- so to speak. One of these guys is going to be mentioned in the title of the next post and he will be linked to in the post itself.
